A Former Deputy Energy Minister and Member of
Parliament (MP) for Adansi Asokwa K.T Hammond, has hit back at the Chief Scribe
of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) Mr Johnson Asiedu Nketia
affectionately called ‘General Mosquito’.According to him, Asiedu Nketia
should be the one readying himself for jail should Nana Akufo-Addo emerge
victorious at the December 7 polls considering a number of underhand dealings he
is reported to be involved in.
Mr Asiedu Nketia while addressing party
supporters over the weekend, served notice that Kobina Tahiru Hammond, will
stand for his role in the sale of Ghana’s drill ship as soon as he loses his
seat and its attendant immunity this year.
“We now know K.T. Hammond’s
smoothness level. So he is about to go on retirement, there is no doubt about
that. When he’s on retirement, before he would have his peace of mind to enjoy
his retirement, we will invite him to come and show us where the drill ship
is.”
“So he thinks being in Parliament is a protection for him because he
thinks he has privileges as a parliamentarian…so if he is dragged to court over
the drill ship saga, people would say we have arrested an MP. This year, he
would exit Parliament and after that we would arrest him and question him about
the whereabouts of the drill ship,” he said.
But the legislator on an
Accra-based radio station said the Mr Asiedu Nketia will among other things
disclose the source of funding for the $20m National Headquarters of the NDC
party if Nana Addo is made president in 2017.
“How dare him claim I will
go to jail does he not read? He will be the one to be jailed and will tell
Ghanaians where he got money to build the twenty million dollars national
headquarters of his party”, he responded.
K.T. Hammond’s wondered why the
NDC stalwart continue to talk like a comedian reiterating the fact that he is
jail bound and not the reverse. |
